But that belief slowly changed when she followed something that occupied her fascination in a way she couldnā€™t fully explainā€¦ice. \n\n\n\nHer macro ice photographs are full of mystery and magic. What makes them so powerful is Tuulaā€™s deep connection to the ice and the worlds she finds in it. And while her images demonstrate technical skill from a decade spent developing her unique process (using old phones and clip-on lenses)\, itā€™s her relationship with the ice and the thoughts and emotions that underpin her creative process that make her work sparkle. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIce allowed what was inside to make itself known. Its abstract and unpredictable nature allows each image to carry and express a unique story. Some hold tangible landscapes and faces within\, which speak to people in different ways. \n\n\n\nA Symbolic Creative Process\n\n\n\nThe symbolism of ice and Tuulaā€™s approach to working with it are also significant parts of this journey\, which has so powerfully wedded creativity and self-discovery. There is something beautiful in her depiction of the process of creating the ice\, breaking it\, pouring hot water over it to expose cracks that become the soft\, delicate\, fleeting moments where beauty emerges. She illuminates the ice with setting suns and old headlamps\, noticing the big differences that tiny changes in weather\, temperature\, and lighting can make. \n\n\n\nJoin Us in The Kota\n\n\n\nJoin us to explore how creativity can help us learn more about ourselves and the world\, and reveal uniquely meaningful ways to express what seems impossible to put into words. \n\n\n\nThe video is 15 minutes long\, leaving us 45 minutes to chat afterwards. Youā€™re welcome to come and listen in quietly\, or get actively involved with the discussion. Either way\, it would be great to have you with us. \n\n\n\nSo grab a mug of something tasty and join us to explore the world of ice and accidental creativity. \n\n\n\nIā€™m always happy to answer questions. Feel free to send me a message if you have any. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProtected Event\n\n\n\nAre you a Haven member? LoginĀ to access this event.

Maybe itā€™s a film\, a book\, a song\, a game\, an album\, a TV show\, an exciting sporting event\, or a true crime rabbit hole. You just want somewhere to share what youā€™ve discovered. Or perhaps\, you would love to hear what others are reading\, watching\, listening to\, playing\, and thinking about. \n\n\n\nBring whatever has been occupying your attention lately\, or simply come and listen. \n\n\n\nYou might leave with:\n\n\n\n\nA recommendation for something youā€™d never have found on your own\n\n\n\nA new perspective on something youā€™re already aware of\n\n\n\nA feeling of connection from being around your people\n\n\n\n\nThe session is relaxed\, and as with all Haven gatherings\, youā€™re welcome to come as you are\, however you need. There will be space for everyone who wants to share\, but thereā€™s no expectation. \n\n\n\nQuestions if you like to think ahead (ignore them if you donā€™t): \n\n\n\n\nHow did it impact you?\n\n\n\nWhat does it remind you of?\n\n\n\nWhere does it inspire you to go next?\n\n\n\n\nIf youā€™re feeling unsure about it\, Iā€™m always happy to answer questions.

It appeals to those who view life as a mysterious treasure island to explore rather than a checklist of predetermined items to tick off. \n\n\n\nOur picnics provide an opportunity to land alongside others each week throughout the month. We listen to a sound anchor (music meditation)\, do a short journal prompt\, and share anything the experience is bringing to life in us. \n\n\n\n\nJoin Us on Serenity Island URL:https://the-haven.co/event/serenity-island-picnic/2026-05-23/ CATEGORIES:Circle ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://the-haven.co/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Serenity-Island-Fireside.jpg LOCATION:https://the-haven.co/event/serenity-island-picnic/2026-05-23/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260522T170000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260522T173000 DTSTAMP:20260618T044516 CREATED:20250812T090847Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260602T072130Z UID:10002058-1779469200-1779471000@the-haven.co SUMMARY:Journal Circle DESCRIPTION:Our Journal Circle is an anchor that grounds us at the end of the week. We reflect on the past seven days and respond to a prompt inspired by our seasonā€™s theme. \n\n\n\nThe gathering serves as a collective journaling habit. Whether or not you have a personal practice\, itā€™s a chance to finish the week with a mark to remember it by. \n\n\n\nWhat to Expect From the Journal Circle:\n\n\n\n\nWe begin by identifying a word or theme that captures the past seven days.\n\n\n\nWe then complete a 5-minute writing prompt.\n\n\n\nWe finish with an open invitation to share reflections.\n\n\n\n\nAs with all Haven gatherings\, youā€™re welcome to come and be. While it would be lovely to hear from you\, thereā€™s no pressure or expectation to speak. \n\n\n\nYou can join us every week or pop in every now and then. Whatever works for you. \n\n\n\nIā€™m always happy to answer any questions. Feel free to send me a message if you have any. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProtected Event\n\n\n\nAre you a Haven member?
